Solved! Yes I am with Aussie Broadband. Turns out they have CGNAT for all new connections and once I called up and had it removed I’m no longer having issues. Thanks

Hi I’ve had a lot of issues trying to join MP servers. Basically I would get stuck at the Please Wait screen and either I would Ctrl Alt Del out or it would time out after ten minutes. After a lot of troubleshooting I’ve found the issue to be network related. I am currently on Fixed Wireless NBN (Australia) and my PC is hardwired to the router. When I try and join any MP servers I have about a 10% success rate. However if I hotspot my phone and connect through that I can get into servers 100% of the time. I am just wondering whether there are any known router issues or fixes. Do I need to set up port forwarding even if I’m not hosting? I get similar Download/Upload speeds for the fixed wireless and phone hotspot. Thanks
